MTHTrains RealTrax 40-1001 User manual

The RealTrax® line is now complete with the addition
of the RealTrax Elevated and Graduated Trestle
Systems. The 24-piece RealTrax Graduated Trestle
consists of 12 pairs of piers, pier bases and track
holders - each different in height to create a 4.7%
grade that rises to 6 1/2 inches above a crossing track
section below. Each RealTrax section simply slides into
the track holder. No track mounting screws are
necessary to attach track to the piers. Now you may
add verticality to your RealTrax layout as easily as with
other trestle systems.
The RealTrax® Trestle System is also compatible with
tubular track. All O-gauge model railroaders may
enjoy the realism, flexibility and simplicity of its
design.

clip (Pier K)(2), Elevation starter clip (Pier L)(2)
Assembly and Use with RealTrax:
1.
2. Slide the RealTrax track into the track holders.
Positioning of the piers at the track joints is recommended to
prevent sagging of track sections between piers.
Slide Pier Into Pier Base making sure that the pier snaps
into position over the tabs on the pier base. Note: Use of
the pier base is optional but recommended when track is set
up directly on the floor or on carpeting.
To Use Trestle Set with O Gauge Tubular Track:
• Lay the tubular track on the clips, lining up the mounting
holes on the track and on the clips.
• Using #4 x ½" (3/8” for O-27) oval head Phillips screws,
mount the track to the clips on each pier by screwing the
screws through the track mounting holes.

bowing and not allow the track clip
to seat properly.
